Story

Hi folks, both of my daughters Neve & Thea have recently been diagnosed with Coeliac Disease. This is a lifelong autoimmune disease and there is no cure. The only treatment is a strict gluten-free diet for life. Thea had her diagnosis confirmed around a year ago and Neve is going into Southampton General on Tuesday for a Gastroscopy to confirm her diagnosis also. I know for most people 10km is a walk in the park but the furthest I’ve ever managed up until now is 5km so it will definitely be a challenge for me! Anything you can give would be gratefully received by Coeliac UK.

Coeliac UK is the expert on coeliac disease and the gluten free diet. They are an independent charity funding critical research, providing trustworthy advice, support, and fighting for better availability of gluten free food. They do it all so that one day, no ones life will be limited by gluten.
